While Obama’s yes men struggle to spin the Iran deal in a positive direction, he seems more interested in restoring another deeply damaged part of his legacy. His performance during a recent episode ofThe Daily Showproved he is still seems to be painting a misleading portrait of one of his administration’s most brazen scandals.

ABC President Ben Sherwood is the brother of Obama’s Special Adviser Elizabeth Sherwood

CNN President Virginia Moseley is married to former Hillary Clinton’s Deputy Secretary Tom Nides.

And now you know why it is no surprise the media is in Obama’s pocket. Think there might be a little bias in the news? This may also explain the cover up of Benghazi, etc., etc., etc., etc., etc., etc., etc., etc., etc.,……..

Isn’t it interesting that every place you look in Obama’s administration people fill positions because of who they know, not what they know or how competent they are —- and you wonder why our country has so many problems.

THIS IS AND HAS ALWAYS BEEN THE ‘GREAT CHICAGO WAY…… NEPOTISM AT IT’S BEST. THE EASIEST WAY TO COVER YOUR LIES IS WITH FAMILY !

The political news that dominated the past two weeks was the rise of Donald Trump. A month ago, Donald Trump wasn’t barely present in opinion polls; today, his approval ratings double those of the runner-up, Jeb Bush. Even after the offensive comment he made about how John McCain was not a war hero, because he was a prisoner of war, Donald Trump is being labeled the Republican front runner by the media. But does he actually stand a chance of winning the nomination?

According to political bettors, his odds are extremely slim. As of Tuesday, July 21st, the political betting sites were showing a 5% probability that Donald Trump wins the Republican nomination.

Political betting sites allow bettors to bet on the outcome of political events, at certain odds. The odds at which these bets can be wagered on are market driven, meaning they go up or down based on bettors buying them. We then convert these odds into a probability in percentage terms, to determine what probability bettors are placing on political events.

Despite Trump leading in the opinion polls, bettors are wagering on a victory for Jeb Bush. In fact, for every week since May 16th, Jeb Bush has been the favorite to win the nomination in the eyes of the bettors. Jeb Bush’s chances actually went up 2% as Trump was rising in the opinion polls.

Trump’s chances of winning the General Election are predictably low; less than 1%, whereas Jeb Bush has a 19% chance.

Trump’s rise is probably good for Jeb in the long run: Trump is setting himself up as the main opposition to Jeb’s moderate, establishment ideology. Since Trump is nowhere close to a serious candidate, and frequently embarrasses himself, Republican voters who previously might have been tempted to vote for a non-establishment candidate will be dismayed by his conduct, and turn more towards Jeb.

Despite Trump’s accelerated rise in opinion polls this past week, and political pundits labeling him the Republican front-runner, the consensus from political bettors is that he is not a viable candidate for either the Republican nomination, or the presidency.

Obama Just Tried To Rewrite History Straight To Jon Stewart’s Face About This HUGE Scandal

From what he said onThe Daily Showwith Jon Stewart Tuesday night, one of Barack Obama’s big goals for his remaining time in office appears to be rewriting the history of his scandal-ridden presidency.

Obama actually went so far as to claim that the IRS never intentionally targeted tea party groups, despite the well-known fact that the agency’s own inspector general has concluded that the IRS did bear down on tea party and other conservative organizations with excessive scrutiny that many termed “intimidation.”

One has to wonder what Obama must be thinking to believe he can tell such a blatant whopper in such cavalier fashion and not be called on it. A quick search of media coverage of the targeting scandal reveals the May, 2013 article inThe Washington Postwith the headline, “IRS admits targeting conservatives for tax scrutiny in 2012 election.”

“The Internal Revenue Service on Friday apologized for targeting groups with ‘tea party’ or ‘patriot’ in their names,” reported the Post, “confirming long-standing accusations by some conservatives that their applications for tax-exempt status were being improperly delayed and scrutinized.”

Before she clammed up and refused to testify to congressional investigators, the former IRS official at the center of the targeting scandal Lois Lerner herself disclosed the “absolutely inappropriate” behavior. As the Post article notes:

It was not clear whether the IRS had anticipated the firestorm that it would ignite with its disclosure. Indeed, it appeared to have happened by chance when Lerner, appearing Friday at a conference held by the American Bar Association, responded to a question about the allegations by conservative groups.

In June, 2013,The Washington Examinerreported that the inspector general at the Treasury Department concluded that conservative groups had been selected for special scrutiny by the IRS far more than progressive organizations.

“Refuting Democratic suggestions that progressive groups were also swept up in the IRS probe of the tax status of Tea Party organizations,” the Examiner article states, “the Treasury Department’s inspector general has revealed that just six progressive groups were targeted compared to 292 conservative groups.”

Yet, President Obama, yucking it up with comedian Jon Stewart last night, brazenly deflected any responsibility for the IRS targeting scandal from his administration and actually blamed lawmakers on Capitol Hill.

President Obama defended the IRS Tuesday in an interview with “Daily Show” host Jon Stewart, saying the tea party-targeting scandal was actually Congress‘ fault for passing “a crummy law” and that the real problem is the agency doesn’t have enough money.

Aiding in the president’s cynical attempt to recast the IRS scandal as something other than what it was is not only the tax agency itself but also Obama’s Justice Department, as an investigative piece onPoliticorecently revealed. The Politico article says the investigation into the scandal is fading into a distant memory because of a purposeful and often-practiced tactic called “death by delay.”

Who is Hillary Attacking Now?

This week, Wisconsin governor Scott Walker signed a law protecting the lives of infants after the fifth month of pregnancy (or 20 weeks after conception), a point in human development when babies can feel pain and survive long-term if born prematurely.

The law includes an exeption for cases in which a physical health issue endangers the life of the mother, but Hillary Clinton still denounced the late-term aboriton ban as an “extreme and unacceptable” measure.

Clinton especially objects to the fact that Wisconsin’s law doesn’t include an exception to allow the killing of infants late in pregnancies that resulted from rape. But laws in the blue states of Pennsylvania and New York (which take effect, respectively, at 22 weeks and 24 weeks after conception) also prohibit late-term abortions in that circumstance. Does Clinton think liberal New York’s aboriton law is also “extreme and unacceptable”?

Republicans in Congress have not only tolerated the legality of abortion in pregnancies that result from rape, they have voted since 1993 for laws allowing federal Medicaid funding of abortions in these extreme cases in order prohibit funding in more than 99 percent of other cases. But even if one accepts this exception for principled or prudential reasons, it does not follow that this exception must exist in the ninth month of pregnancy.

Barack Obama Once Said “God Bless Planned Parenthood.” How Can God Bless Selling Aborted Babies?In 2013, President Obama asked God to bless Planned Parenthood during his speech at one of their events. He said, “As long as we’ve got to fight to make sure women have access to quality, affordable health care, and as long as we’ve got to fight to protect a woman’s right to make her own choices about her own health, I want you to know that you’ve also got a president who’s going to be right there with you, fighting every step of the way,” said Obama. “Thank you, Planned Parenthood. God bless you.”

Franklin Graham: Our Nation Will One Day Have to Answer for the Lives Taken in AbortionsOn July 15, Rev.
